Never, ever, ever buy anything URO. They are evil and must be destroyed :evil:
I agree! Have to send my son and his Modern Warfare buddies to lay waste to the URO factory.

If this is a cracked hose from a turbo....that's why you have a loss of power.
That there is a nasty little gash. Aside from teh dealer the only other brand I can find is URO and I'm not too fond of their goodies.

Re: Loss of oil and power

Thanks vj, I'll have them check it out when I take it in for oil change and rotation. Be easier with the car in the air.

Re: 850 turbo 96: emissions failed: hi HC & CO, + O2 error c

Rule #1 - Engine should be nice and warm when you get the test station. No cold tests. Run that beast on the and through some city streets. The 02 sensors your purchased could actually be bad ( slow ) and still not throw a code. My front 02 has been ' slow ' for four years now. Are you running premi...

Re: Where's the Suspension master? Experience w/ non-OEM br

I would do it all at once. Better to have everything new than to have to go back in and take one side apart to replace aging components.

Re: Loss of oil and power

[quote="phils94850"]when you say a loss in boost, do you know how much boost its making ? If its a auto trans it could be slipping causing the feeling of loss of power.[/quote ] Transmission isn't slipping. Holds speed fine going up hill. That was my first thought though. The louder, more ...

Buying used motor, have some a question

Hey all, been a while since I've posted. I'm buying a used motor in the next couple of months to replace my tired 304k mile unit. I'm going to be refreshing all of the seals and o-rings I can get to before sending to the shop for install. Of course I want to do these myself as that cut labor costs a...
